My head or my heart? Picking this game is difficult as each moment passes. However, the more I think about it, the more I come back to one thought and one thought only. Can Voodoo magic overcome the greatness of Peyton Manning?

As the Vikings and Saints took the field this past Sunday evening for the first ever NFC Championship game in New Orleans, the anticipation of whether Brett Favre’s comeback could make it all the way to the Super Bowl was one step away. Or as life may have it, one throw away from getting Favre all the way back to the promised land…the Super Bowl. Hollywood was loving it.
